"Arabian Gold."
"Arabian Gold" is a dynamic track by the German disco duo, released in 1987 as part of the album Romantic Warriors. Listening to this track you can feel the abundance of live instruments... Actually - it is. It should be noted that during the recording of the album the relationship between Dieter and Thomas was quite warm. However, there was a conflict ahead of them (we are talking about the famous scandal on the Munich stage).
"Arab Gold.
For your precious love.
Arab gold
I can change all that.
Arab gold
Frozen by my tears
Oh, I'm screaming
Take away, take away my fears..."
"Lonely Tears in Chinatown."
Another 1987 hit from the album In the Middle of Nowhere. The author is Dieter Bohlen.
"Heartbroken, pillow full of tears.
It was hot, baby, hotter than ever.
Everybody needs someone to be their rock.
I didn't realise it could be so cold in the sky.
When you call me, baby,
I'll be there.
And a penny for the thought of your care I will give..."
The song was released as a single in Spain, where, by the way, it was very popular! In the national chart of this country, "Lonely Tears in Chinatown" reached a solid 9th place....
"Heaven will know."
A very popular song from the album Let's Talk About Love. Although there is very little information about this song today, it was so successful in the late 80's as well as the legendary "Cheri, Cheri Lady"!
"When I'm not feeling well
I close my eyes to be next to you.....
You're my angel in the night
You are a light in the darkness..."
"Just We Two (Mona Lisa)."
"Just We Two (Mona Lisa)", often referred to simply as "Mona Lisa", is a very pleasant and light song with a smooth, literally dissolving chorus... A legendary hit and one of the favourites among the band's fans.
"Just the two of us...
The Mona Lisa breaks my heart.
Just the two of us...
You are a beautiful work of art..."
"Sexy, Sexy Lover"
This song is as hot and colourful as its title! "Sexy, Sexy Lover" (which means "Loving, Passionate") is Modern Talking's second single from the album Alone. It was released in May 1999. It is one of the few Modern Talking songs that was recorded in the 90's and became very popular! The track is relevant among music lovers even today, several decades later.....
Quite an interesting fact: if we make an analogy in terms of atmosphere, theme and even the title, "Sexy, Sexy Lover" reminds of the legendary "Cheri, Cheri Lady"! Maybe it's a coincidence... Anyway - "Sexy, Sexy Lover" as a single is unique in its own way. It was recorded in Hamburg, with the participation of rapper Eric Singleton.
"Princess Of The Night"
If it can be called that, "Princess Of The Night" is a kind of pop ballad! A very tender, fresh, novelised composition... Definitely a worthy addition to today's list of the best Modern Talking songs!
"Princess of the Night.
What did you do?
Princess of the Night.
Princess of the Day.
When the night is gone forever..."
"One in a million."
"Ah, that lonely glow,
I can hear deep in the night your heartbeat.
I need you so much,
Know that I won't let you go..."
"Rouge Et Noir"
"Rouge Et Noir" is a famous composition from the eighth studio album Alone. The song was released on the threshold of the noughties and quickly gained public recognition! According to some critics, Modern Talking resorted to "technologically advanced sound" when working on this record, which made them look like ABBA... Is it so? Only the listeners can decide...
"Just like an angel."
A measured and clean sounding composition dedicated to the duo's favourite theme - romance!
"The cafe is empty, the night is passing by, millions of stars shine in the sky.
Still miss you, where are you going to go tonight?"
"Charlene."
It's no secret that many Modern Talking songs have female names. And "Charlene" is one of such romanticised ballads... By the way: the song about a certain "Charlene" was released on the album Romantic Warriors in 1987.
"My Charlene, Charlene, Charlene,
I'm going down,
Oh, I'm asking
About your love, about your love..."
"Don't Worry!"
"Lucky Guy."
"Angie's Heart"
"Who Will Save The World"
"Maria."
Let's finish our Modern Talking Top Hits with the dynamic track "Maria". Written already in the new century, it is full of playful Spanish motifs... It sounds luxurious and rather unusual for the iconic disco duo. However, it is certainly gorgeous!
"Lonely Maria, Maria, Maria,
You are so beautiful but lonely, senorita!
Lonely Maria, Maria, Maria,
Will you have time to kiss me, Maria?"
Conclusion...
The only thing left to do is to thank the legendary duo of Dieter Bohlen and Thomas Anders for all these delightful songs, which are pleasantly uplifting even today, after all these years! Older hits of the band take you back to the days of your youth and awaken the romance of those years... Priceless hits forever! Modern Talking is the best!
